How does gravity have an affect on our atmosphere?
bulgar [2K]

-- Gravity causes forces of attraction between masses.

-- Every molecule of every component of our atmosphere has mass.

-- Gravity causes forces of attraction between the molecules of the
atmosphere, which may largely be disregarded, but more importantly
between the molecules of atmosphere and the Earth. 

In other words, gravity has the effect of keeping the atmosphere in place
around the Earth.  Without gravity, there would be no atmosphere. 

(There would be no Earth either, but that's another story.)

20) What wavelength does the Sun emit most of its radiation at, and what is the name of that radiation region? vi'sible micromet
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

Explanation:

The Sun emits a large range of electromagnetic waves, from gamma rays (higher frequencies) to radio waves (lower frequencies), through X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves. The peak of the Sun's energy output is actually in the visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

In the graph I annexed, you can see a simplified representation of the energy emissions of the Sun versus the wavelengths of those emissions. The y-axis shows the amount of energy emitted at a given wavelength and the x-axis represents different wavelengths of EM radiation. In this graph is observable than the major emission of radiation emitted by the Sun is in the visible range.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

How is your local ecosystems linked to the Pacific Ocean
sveticcg [70]
An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system.  <span> 
</span>
<span>The biogeochemical cycles move through mainly the biotic and abiotic components of the earth, more elaborately the spheres -biospheres, lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere regions of the ecosystem. These biogeochemical cycles, from its terminology and discernable word morphology- involves the biological, geological and chemical components that make out to complete an exact and purposed cycle. The purpose in these cycles are to maintain balance and to ensure the ongoing process of the living and non-living organisms in the environment. These cycles’ help to living organisms survive and thrive. One popular example is the water cycle.
